Rolls-Royce designed a new set of luggage that costs more than an entry-level luxury car

Rolls-Royce is
known for not doing anything half-baked. So when they
created a new set of luggage pieces, that philosophy
transferred intact.

The six pieces of the Wraith Luggage Collection — two "Grand
Tourer" valises, three "Long Weekender" bags, and a "Garment
Carrier" — were designed by Rolls-Royce's Bespoke Design Studio
to complement the company's cars.

Each bag can be customized by the customer, with design features
that mimic those found in the actual Rolls-Royce Wraith. Yes, it
is possible for your car and luggage to match perfectly, down to
matching thread in the identical leather.

In fact, the collection got its name because it was "meticulously
designed to be housed in the luggage compartment of a Rolls-Royce
Wraith," Rolls-Royce
told Women's Wear Daily. Basically, all the bags fit
perfectly in the trunk.

Like the cars themselves, the collection is no bargain. It will
retail for a total of $45,854 for all six pieces — which is
more than the average entry-level car cost in 2015 (around
$40,000, according to KBB). The pieces can also be purchased
separately.

Of course, if you're willing to drop close to four dozen G's on a
set of luggage, you're probably not going to be the one handling
it most of the time. With that in mind, Rolls-Royce conferred
with the experts ("head butlers from some of the world's
most illustrious hotels") to design the collection.
The result is an entirely functional, as well as stylish, set of
luggage.
